The youngest age the booking form will accept is ten. Ten to seventeen books on the child rate, eighteen and over on the adult rate, and the form does not require an adult on the booking.
The company does not recommend the dive for spinal injuries, pregnancy, or poor cardiovascular health. Past that it describes the session as suitable for all physical fitness levels, and service animals are allowed.
Group size stays small. The listing puts it at four divers per time slot, and a single booking tops out at four travelers.
What Is Down There
The company lists octopus, moray eels and large schools of tropical fish among the things you might see. It words that as a chance rather than a promise, and reef life does not keep a schedule.

The video package is included with every tour, so the part you will be worst at describing afterwards is the part that gets recorded.
